This paper concludes with a preliminary quantitative analysis exploring the public perceptions associated with flying cars-including anticipated benefits, concerns, and willingness to both hire and acquire the technology once available to consumers. Specifically, issues pertinent to training, safety, environment, navigation, infrastructure, logistics/sustainability, and cybersecurity and human factors are explored. In this paper, an extensive review of current literature is conducted to explore the technological capabilities of flying cars-each requiring appropriate regulations and governance-to become fully sustainable. However, as a long-term solution, transportation scientists are also investigating the once-seemingly futuristic notion of flying car technology-a convergent form of ground/air vehicle transportation, and assessing associated regulations. Current pathways to overcoming these issues include the gradual transition toward a number of emerging transportation technologies, such as, autonomous motor vehicles for human transport, as well as unmanned aerial vehicles (UAV's) and “drone” technologies for surveillance, and package deliveries. Instead of following the traditional infrastructure expansion policy, current transportation research focuses on developing innovative and novel solutions to the aforementioned issues. In recent years, our surface transportation infrastructure is suffering from overuse, extreme traffic congestion, and roadway disrepair. 4Transport Research Institute, Edinburgh Napier University, Edinburgh, United Kingdom.3Motion Simulation Laboratory, University at Buffalo, Buffalo, NY, United States.2Stephen Still Institute for Sustainable Transportation and Logistics, University at Buffalo, Buffalo, NY, United States.1Department of Civil, Structural and Environmental Engineering, University at Buffalo, Buffalo, NY, United States.Hulme 2,3, Grigorios Fountas 4, Ugur Eker 5, Irina V. įor more details, please see our privacy notice.Sheikh Shahriar Ahmed 1,2, Kevin F.
